Default 1996 Honda Accord Suspension Problems

I recently installed Tein Lowering springs on my accord. The first couple of months it was perfect! but then after a while it started making this noise on the rear left side everytime i hit a bump on the road. It pretty obvious that it's coming from my suspension. The noice is like grinding metal to metal. Its not my tires rubbin in the fender. The noise got worst when i out 17's on my car. I cant pack my car with 4 people anymore because of the sound.

You guys are expert on this maybe you guys could help me out. thanks.

Aris

Well I'm more then sure it's this.

When you install spring ONLY the factor strut cry for a substitute get some new struts made for the inches of difference. That should end that noise. ALSO

In order to have proper alignment I installed a front and rear kit and the rear kit. It made some noise in the back due to the fact that the factor spacers are not needed. But I haven't heard that noise anymore that was 3 days ago today(Saturday-Monday).

Poor Struts don't make then do work they aren't made for.
